About Social Security Disability Benefits

While the Social Security Administration offers multiple benefit programs to Americans, there are two types of disability programs individuals can apply for:

Disability Insurance (DI or SSDI)

This disability program is designed for people who have worked and paid into the Social Security system. In theory then, if the person becomes disabled later on, if they have met certain criteria establishing eligibility based on their payments into the system, they would then be able to receive Social Security Disability Benefits. Their payments over time into the system are, thus, a type of “insurance” as the name of the program implies. Learn more about Disability Insurance benefits »

Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

Unlike the Disability Insurance benefits program, the Supplemental Security Income or “SSI” program is a needs-based program. If you can show that you are disabled and if you also have very little income or assets, you may qualify for benefits. This program is for disabled children as well as for adults who are basically needy and without resources. Specific income tests apply to determine if you are eligible for this SSI program.

Appealing A Social Security Rejection

Have you applied for SSI or SSDI only to receive a rejection letter? Don’t worry; over 2/3 of initial claims for disability benefits are denied. Fortunately, there are several levels of appeals you can go through to have your claim heard and reconsidered. Our team of Social Security disability lawyers can help you through the appeals process so you can receive the benefits you need. Learn more about the appeal process »
